Mr.. Lamar,s Anpointment.

The appointment of Mr. Lamar to the po-
sition of a Justice of the Supreme Court
Yves net unexpected and there is no doubt
that it will be very generally approved. A
few of the extreme Republican papers will
condemn it, but they would have con-
demned the appointment of any Southern
Democrat
Mr.. Lamar is a ripe scholar and man Of
broad and liberal opinions. He may not be
as well read in legal precedents as some of
the other Justices of the Supreme Court,
but he has a very thorough acquaintance
with the principles of the law, and it is safe
to say that the decisions which he will
write will compare favorably with those of
the other members of the court.
The President, it seems, has not decided
upon Mr.. Lamar's successor as Secretary of
the Interior, and he will not find an easy
task to make choice that will give as much
satisfaction at the head of that department
as Mr.. Lamar. The office is one of many bur
dens and great responsibility. 1t requires
man to direct it who is capable
of carrying in his mind the details of very
many important subjects, and is able to de-
eide great questions promptly and at the
same time with such unerring judgment as
to avoid adverse criticism.
Our dispatches contain an intimation
that if an acceptable man can be found
for Postmaster General Mr.. Villas may be
offered the Interior Department While it
will hardly be denied that Mr.. Villas made
some grave mistakes in matters that were
purely political soon after he took posses
sion of the Post Office Department, he GER
tainly has conducted that department ad-
mirably. He is good organizer
and an excellent executive Off
Ger, and, doubtless, he would
not only carry forward the reforms which
Mr.. Lamar has inaugurated, but also inau-
gurate others. The Interior Department is
certainly in need of reforms.
There is no question about the confirma-
ton of Mr.. Lamar's nomination. The Sen
ate very seldom refuses to confirm the NOM
ination of any one who has been a member
of that body, and, besides, when Mr.. Lamar
was in the Senate he was popular on both
sides Of the chamber.

Mr.. Raecher's Successor.

If churches in this country continue to
call clergymen from England the clergymen
of this country will have good reason for
asking Congress for protection. Why
shouldn't they be protected as well as the
manufacturer or the producer of raw ma
teriall Very few of them now are paid
salaries which afford them a comfortable
living. and if their number is increased by
importation competition will force salaries
to still lower point.
Only few weeks ago the Church of the
Holy Trinity of New York called Rev. J.
Walpole Warren to its pulpit, and day or
two ago the Advisory Board of Plymouth
Church unanimously voted to offer the Rev
Charles A. Berry the pulpit so long and so
ably filled by Mr.. Beecher Both Mr., War
rem and Mr.. Berry are Englishmen, and
both have acquired distinction in their ma
tive country.
If Mr.. Berry accepts the call to Plymouth
Church, he will have splendid field for the
exercise of his ability, but, however great
his ability may be, it will be years before
he will receive the credit his merit deserves.
The tendency will be to compare him with
Mr.. Beecher, and he will have to show him
self to be very great man if the compari-
son is at all favorable to him.
Mr.. Berry is quite young man, being
only So years of age. He has, however,
been a minister Of the gospel for thirteen
years, and a remarkably successful one.
His theological views are very similar to
those which Mr. Beecher entertained, and
which he expressed with such vigor and &C
ceptability to the congregation to which he
preached for so many years.
Mr. Berry's present congregation is at
Northampton, and is said to be the larg-
est Of the kind in England outside of Lon
don. He has been at Northampton about
four years, and if his people there have to

Close to the Scafold.

The seven condemned Anarchists in the
Chicago Jail will occupy good share OF the
thoughts of the people OF this country TO
day. Unless Gov Oglesby interferes in
their behalf this will be the last Sunday
they will spend upon earth. AS they draw
nearer to the galows expressions of sympa-
thy for them will be more frequently heard.
! The terrible death which awaits them will
cause many who regard with horror the
crime they committed, and who desteSt the
principles which they teach, TO wonder
whether after all it would not be better to
commute their sentence to Imprisonment for
life
The great mass of thinking people, how
ever, will not utter a word of protest
against the execution of the sentence. They
sustain the jury which rendered the verdict
and the courts which have said that the YER
dict was in accordance with the law and
the facts Mercy to the seven might be
cruelty to thousands Any hesitation in
executing the sentence would doubtless be
construed by the Anarchists to mean that the
authorities were afraid to enforce the law.
They would not be slow
to act upon this Interpretation,
and the law and its representatives would
be openly defied in other cities besides Chi
cago
1t is said that Gov. Oglesby has given no
hint of what his course will be with regard
TO the petitions of the seven men for par
don. He has talked very freely about their
case, but has been very careful not to
express any opinion with re-
gard to it. Those who have
had very long acquaintance with him, and
are familiar with his leading characters
tics, express the opinion that he will hear
all that is to be said for and against par
don, and will refuse the petition unless
doubt can be raised in his mind
as TO the guilt of the con
demned men. He is very sympathetic,
and would not hesitate to use the pardoning
power if he thought by doing so he would
be serving an innocent man. Every scrap
of evidence, however, in behalf Of the con-
deulned men was presented in court, and If
he shows them clemency he must do so
without other evidence IN their behalf than
that which the jury, that found the verdict,
acted upon. There is scarcely a possibility,
therefore, that the execution of the sentence
will be interfered with.

Small Audiences at the Theatre

The smallness of the audiences at the
theatre this season has been the occasion OF
comment and inquiry. The attractions
have been good, and the standard of the
performances equal to that of any previous
year. Why, then, is it that the theatre is 50
poorly patronized
The chief, and perhaps, the only reason is
that money is not so plentiful with the
people as it was a few years ago, and
greater economy is, therefore, being
practiced.
The decline in the patronage of the
theatre is not now noticeable for the first
time. 1t has attracted the attention for two
or three years of those who attend the
theatre great deal, but it is a little more
noticeable perhaps this year than ever before,
gentleman who was speaking of this
matter day or two ago said that there had
been great decline in salaries, and that
consequently young men did not have as
much money for amusenents as formerly.
Clerks, bookkeepers and statesmen who used
to get all the way from 800 to $3.50 per
month are now glad to get employment at
less than one-half of those amounts.
Those who are conducting business on
their own account are not making money as
easily and rapidly as they were few years
ago and they are, therefore, compelled to
cut down their expenses A well-known
business man is reported as saying that five
or six years ago he could make 500 easier
than he can s. now. Competition has reduced
the profits. The amount of business done is
mnch greater than ever, but the amount of
money made is much less
This condition of affairs does not exist
alone in Savannah. 1t prevails throughout
the entire country, and especially in the
larger cities. Indeed, there is good reason
for saying that small profits and low sala-
ries were matters of general complaint in
Northern and Western cities before they
became particularly noticeable in this city.
If, therefore, the patronage of the theatre is
not so large as it was, nor as large as it
ought to be, it is because the people are
forced to economize, and not because of
want of first-class attractions.
